The coming days I will tell you something about my adventures on the Russian tall Ship ‘Sedov’. On 16th of June I went on board the Barque ‘Sedov’ and sailed from Svetly (Russia) to Den Helder (The Netherlands) In Den Helder the barque would participate in Sail Den Helder 2017 and I was commisioned to take pictures of this maritime event.
Just before departure, the Russian Tall Ship ‘Sedov’ was transferred from the Murmansk State Technical University to Kaliningrad State Technical University (KSTU). On the 17th of June 2017 there was a press conference with the Russian television with rector Vladimir Volkogon (KSTU). On the 18th of June the vessel started her first voyage of 2017 and first under the flag of Baltic Fishing Fleet State Academy (BFFSA). Now, The BFFSA operates two of the biggest Russian sail training ships – Kruzenshtern and Sedov. The Baltic Fishing Fleet State Academy used 7 pictures of me in an article about the transfer of Barque Sedov.
Sailing with the Russian Tall Ship ‘Sedov’ was a great adventure. Everyday I will tell you something about my trip with the barque ‘Sedov’ from Kaliningrad (Svetlliy) Russia to Den Helder, The Netherlands.
I have been aboard the Russian Tall Ship ‘Sedov’ several times during pilotages, but I have never sailed with full sails. A dream comes true! I am sailing from Kaliningrad (Russia) to Den Helder. I am excited. The Tall Ship ‘Sedov’ will be present during Sail Den Helder 2017 from 22 – 25th of June 2017.
